    1. ditto something similar here, I'm for "Dragon" or "Year of the Dragon." He was born in 1988, which means he actually is a Dragon and 2012 is considered to be "his" year.

    2. cool, glad you liked it, hope he does. i was gonna go with the Shaolin show, but since its the year of the dragon, thats the coolest name, plus nike has a sick shoe for the year of the dragon, so i hope his agent gets him a campaign dedicated to jeremy " The Dragon" Lin. They should embrace some sick dragon pics and also educate people on the culture and explain the story behind the dragon !!!!!!!!!! Maybe even a touch of bruce lee ( R.I.P) imagery in the campaign, that would be siiiiiiiick. Just dishin out some random ideas. Really happy for jeremy and his story is amazing and inspiring me and my family everyday.....

  7. A nickname without his name in it: "The One."

    In basketball terms, the PG position is known as "the 1."

    He's the FIRST NBA player who's American-born Chinese/Taiwanese.

    He's the only Ivy League player currently in the NBA.

    He "saved" the Knicks' season.

    Jeremy Lin is...THE ONE.

  27. I think the best nicname would be this - as they already use it in every media. A bit long for a nickname, but can get used to it:


    Lin, "The first American-born NBA player of Chinese or Taiwanese descent"

    :-)
